Jimmy Howard’s Stadium Series mask pays homage to Tigers legends

Jimmy Howard has hit one out of the ballpark with a newly-designed mask honouring some of the greatest figures in Detroit Tigers history.

The baseball-themed mask — unveiled in time for the 2016 Stadium Series game against the Colorado Avalanche — features images of Al Kaline, Kirk Gibson, Alan Trammell as well as broadcaster Ernie Harwell and manager Sparky Anderson.
